For those of you who want to SIM unlock your T-Mobile smartphones, there is an easy way to do it using T-Mobile’s Device Unlock App. Now, the Device Unlock App only works if you have paid off your EIP in full(you have to pay off your installment plan). As soon as you pay off your EIP, you can unlock SIM right away and in this SIM unlock tutorial I paid for my EIP and was able unlock SIM within 5 minutes of paying off EIP. Also, if you have paid full for your device you can easily unlock SIM. Yes, this 100% FREE.

Does OnePlus 6T work on Verizon & T-Mobile 4G LTE simultaneously? When OnePlus 6T was announced with full support for T-Mobile’s 4G LTE network along with support for Verizon, I was really interested if the OnePlus 6T can work on both Verizon & T-Mobile 4G LTE simultaneously. This is because I have unlimited plan on both T-Mobile & Verizon and I don’t like carrying two phones. Whenever I drop to dead spots with T-Mobile here in SF Bay Area(which happens quite often), I would switch to my other smartphone with Verizon SIM card. With the OnePlus 6T, this is going to allow me to carry around just one smartphone and use both networks.

Here are a few things YOU MUST KNOW before buying the OnePlus 6T. First, OnePlus 6T is going to be available from T-Mobile starting on November 1st 2018 in all T-Mobile stores in America. Now, the T-Mobile version of OnePlus 6T is slightly different from the fully-unlocked version that OnePlus sells in their online store, that it has single SIM instead of dual SIM. Also, if you need to unlock the bootloader and you are on a payment plan, you will actually have to pay off your ETF AND fill out a form AND wait for permission from T-Mobile to unlock the bootloader, which is a lot of hoops you have to jump through never mind headache and hassel. Now, you can just simply buy the fully unlocked dual-SIM version from OnePlus website and enjoy dual SIM along with freedom to unlock your bootloader any time you want, and it does not even void the warranty. (That’s right, you don’t void warranty from OnePlus but the T-Mobile version might.)

Probably the biggest smartphone scam that’s been going around for at least the last 10 years is on eBay is people buying phones on carriers like AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, or Verizon then claim insurance on them(so they get a new phone for free) after 3-6 months after you buy the phone. The reason why this scam works is because eBay itself ONLY guarantees you for 30-days at maximum(if seller does) and by the time your phone is blacklisted 3 to 6 months later, eBay is no longer responsible for the blacklisted phone. It is actually the perfect scammer for scammers out there but if you are just trying to get a brand, new phone for a bit cheaper then buying at the stores, you may end up paying hundred of dollars more.

Looking for the best 4G LTE in Las Vegas? In today’s video, I talk about the best 4G LTE speeds in 2018 from my own personal experience and also speed tests from the Wynn Hotel, which has horrible 4G LTE coverage in the rooms and ton of dead zones. While that speed test isn’t reflective of overall Vegas, I also cover which network is best from my experiences using all 5 networks all over Las Vegas.

It seems like Samsung has made some changes to the international Exynos Galaxy S9/S9+ and not all T-Mobile 4G LTE bands are supported this year unlike previous Galaxy phones. AT&T is not affected but if you are on T-Mobile, just know you may get stuck on HSPA+ most of the time if you buy the international Exynos Galaxy S9/S9+ models.
